The choice of a game controller to steer the Titan was the least-sketchy and most-defensible design decision made in that case. As a tinkerer and maker myself, you want to invent the fewest number of new things when inventing a new thing. It just makes sense to focus on the central goal. The goal was build a sub (poorly it turns out), not invent a new way to translate button presses into motion. That’s a solved problem.

I’m unsure of the relevance of a gamepad
Nevertheless, the seeming absurdity is funny and I’m here for it
That’s how they controlled the sub. You can buy one if you want.
Ohhh of course, you’re right, that’s why it looked familiar!
